I would adore getting some photos of Bob playing the piano or in his wine barrel house or if anyone has photos of him doing his tricks won't you please email me a copy? HotelCharlotte@aol.com

In spite of wearing a collar for 4 years that Bob got from Lorena, that said I love Snow, (no doubt a joke gift.) He hated the snow and cold. Here he is begging me to let him inside after one of our bigger snow falls in 2006.
Bob loved the kids that frequently visit us, but was not a fan of the camera. It was always a bit of a production to get a good photo out of him.
In our pre-Hotel Charlotte life Bob and I would kayak daily. Bob preferred the sit-on-top type of kayak such as Jamie and Arnie are in. This one with the hole was a little uncomfortable for the two of us.
This is my sister Annie hugging Bob on the boat. Did you know that bob spent half his life living on this boat? It sure was a different pace back then!
Bob was Victor's canvas with which he tried out all his weird ideas. This one is Vegetable Bob originating from some curvaceous cukes that Lisa gave us, the wrap-around sort.
There are certain indignities that ever Hotel Dog must endure and Bob was no slacker in this department. From wearing odd hats and costumes to welcoming folks with what ever cheer we were offering up that day. In this case, valentine's day.
Bob was also quite a showman and had a great series of tricks he would perform. The hardest part was my role. I had to guess which trick he was going to do next and call that out one moments before he did the trick. We usually had it down!
Bob had two beds, the day bed inside the wine barrel where he could "hide" if he didn't want to be social or stick his head out and participate in all the goings on. This is his night bed we keep in the apartment. Besides chasing the occasional cat around the back, Bob loved to sleep
